Whats not reasonable about that? Excuse me, though I may be a mere acolyte I have to severely disagree with you. If this was a bar, consider yourself smashed over the head with a barstool, stomped into a bloodied mess then unceremoniously dragged into the parking lot and thrown in a dumpster. That is without doubt the single most idiotic, counter-productive, untrue, fallacious, and outright *false* statement I've ever read on any BSD list - ever. 4.10 *is* supported, and 5.3 works "as advertised" - what the hell is your *problem* exactly??? Apologies to the list, but this was just too much. I shall now cease and desist, instead just fulminate quietly and post on this matter no longer. Regards to all, -Colin
